Hi Friends, No one likes to suffer...if you do, let me know. I got a good therapist for you. All jokes aside, suffering comes whether we like it or not. So what is at the other side of that suffering? What is the fruit of that time? Can we say like Joseph that "...God has made me fruitful in the land of my suffering"?

Hi Friends! What if the woman with the issue of blood from Mark 5 thought her healing wasn't worth pushing past the crowd to Jesus? It wouldn't have only affected her life, but ours as well.

Hi Friends! Anxiety seems to be plaguing so many people. It's affecting their lives, the lives of people they love, their jobs, etc. Mental health issues are no longer stigmatized, but are we too comfortable making it our identity?

Hi Friends, You may be asking yourself, what is a prodigal spirit? I know asked myself the same thing when the Lord first dropped that in my spirit a couple months ago. Many have heard the story of the Prodigal Son found in Luke 15 and many of us are praying for the prodigals we love to come home to the Father as well. But could it be that even though we have physically come back to the Father's house, our heart reveals something else? Listen in as I share what the Lord has showed me and let's make sure we release that prodigal spirit from our heart and minds! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/lizteach/support

Hi Friends! Knowing who you are matters! We think we know who we are, but in reality could be living out a lie that we were told long ago. And now that lie is being told to our children and children's children. The identity of our children, our teens is being assaulted on a daily basis. They need us to get it together so we can help them. I pray as you listen in, that you will be empowered by who you really are meant to be! It's in Christ that we find out who we are and what we are living for. Long before we first heard of Christ and got our hopes up, he had his eye on us, had designs on us for glorious living, part of the overall purpose he is working out in everything and everyone.

Hi Friends, Today my podcast is about spiritual leadership. I talk about areas that I've struggled with, learned from, been humbled in and repented. If we want our ministries to be fruitful, we need to recognize when it's time to repent. Sometimes our own lack of repentance is what is not allowing God's promises be fulfilled! Listen in and share. Let's repent, heal and be fruitful in our leadership. Let's sow into and produce other leaders that will bless and not hurt. "The authority by which the Christian leader leads is not power but love, not force but example, not coercion but reasoned persuasion. Leaders have power, but power is safe only in the hands of those who humble themselves to serve.-John Stott Be on guard for yourselves and for all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.-Acts 20:28 Only people of proven character should be placed in positions of spiritual leadership.

Hi Friends! So there are things that we say and repeat over and over that actually make no sense and aren't true. As a Christian, I have said things that sound right, sound good, make me feel good, but aren't biblical and actually harm my relationship with God and others. So in this episode, I confront five of those lies. Soooo....I quote scripture and often get references wrong, so I'm putting the references here. You'll understand as you listen. Thank God for grace.

Hi Friends! Has God failed me? Liz, have you lost your mind? How can you ask such a thing? Well, if we're honest, as I have had to be in my life, there are moments in our life where we feel God has not come through for us. And if we don't wrestle with that, figure that out, surrender it to God, the faith that we need to get us through circumstances will not grow.
